I have seen some really fugly candles including yankme that make me proud of my little smelly jars!

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

Hey tootie

Hows the coast?? rain and wind in the valley.....same o same o!

Anyway, I'm still on my first box of Accupar 30 and I really like it...changed from CB 30 because I didn't like the always pastel colors... great hot and cold throw..not too tempermental...don't know what it's blended with but I believe Pete told me it didn't have soy in it...have never had to put 10% frag.in it but website says it will hold that amount....

do you have a party mart or party depot? they're sold in the plastic glassware section (think jello shooters).. also cash and carry (Smart and Final, United Grocers)...being in Spokane, you might have an Associated Grocers cash and carry or URM

Candles and Supplies has them..their prices are fairly reasonable, but shipping might be a killer depending on where you are....

Melissa

Daystars pink sugar is the best!!!!

I use cb30 and htp wicks, have tried zinc and didn't like them at all, have had best luck with htp...give it another burn and you should get a full melt pool...126's would prob. be too big but single wicking with a 1312 doesn't work real well on that large of container..

I do, and haven't burned the house down yet!!!

My hubby nailed an old oil filter wrench to the side of my workbench as a holster.....(his motto is ..you never want to throw anything away...:rolleyes2 )

Melissa

Try a drop or 2 of vanilla in the citrusy sents, and also works for straight peppermint. (thank you candletech!!!):rolleyes2

Melissa

OMG!! Thought I was gonna die!!!:undecided

I beleive I read on this board that if the container can withstand boiling water than it should be safe for candles...

Look into Genwax,in N.hollywood, I beleive, just got adozen of each 7oz and14oz Bayside jars shipped to Salem, OR for about 13.00. I think I figured a case of each (36 +24) would be about 25.00.

I love handcrafted just for the simple fact that not everyone has them(YET!)

Besides what candleman says about quality, I think the snob appeal is worth alot more when something is handmade..

JMHO

Melissa

The straight sided votive holders from Michaels or Wally World are what i use...anything that the candle fits snugly into (that is heat safe) will work as long as there isn't room for the wax to run down the side of the candle.
